Mister me
Ego queen
Struts around me
Painted jeans
All I wanted was
Someone to rely on
I see you
You don't see me
Nothing burns like your empathy
All I wanted was
Someone safe to lean on
I will stay
But you should leave
You go find what you're looking for
'Cause I've found me
You stand tall
So I stand down
Blood stays wet beneath
This cold crown
All I wanted was
Someone blind
To guide me
Maybe to hide in
I will stay
But you should leave
You go find what you're looking for
'Cause I've found me
I will stay
But you should leave
You go find what you're looking for
'Cause I've found me
Come back to me
All I wanted was you
I will stay
But you should leave
You go find what you're looking for
'Cause I've found me
I will stay
But you should leave
You go find what you're looking for
'Cause I've found me
